n
nWith Bell’s current popularity points, he could draw several times.
n
nAccording to his previous luck, these lucky draws would definitely increase his strength greatly.
n
nBell couldn’t help but smile. Suddenly, he seemed to react and quickly looked at the comments in the live-stream.
n
nRealizing that not many audience members in the live-stream noticed his abnormality, Bell heaved a sigh of relief.
n
nSeeing that his strength could increase further, Bell’s mood could not help but improve. Even his footsteps became much lighter.
n
nThe gloomy rain darkened the rainforest. Bell did not know how long he had walked until he felt hunger and had to stop.
n
nBell sat on a tree stump and wiped the rain from his face.
n
n“In this environment, it’s difficult to know the exact time without a watch and electronic equipment.
n
nIn the wilderness, we have to know how to arrange our time and when to do things.
n
nBecause doing the wrong thing at the wrong time might cause you to gain nothing and only waste your energy. ”
n
n“In this current weather and environment, you can’t even tell if it’s morning or afternoon. However, I can teach everyone a way to differentiate it by looking at animals.
n
nWhen we can’t confirm the approximate time, we can choose to observe the movements of some animals.
n
nMany animals are most active in the evening and night.
n
nOf course, this cannot be considered a precise conclusion.
n
nBut their actions point to a general time period. ”
n
nBell walked to a tree.
n
nOn the wide leaves of this tree was a small blue poison dart frog.
n
nBell pointed at the frog.
n
n“Frogs are usually active in the evening and night.
n
nWhen you are in the wilderness, if you can hear the sound of frogs, it means that it will be dark soon. At this time, we need to find a shelter as soon as possible.”
n
n“In addition, there are many nocturnal creatures.
n
nFor example, the jaguar we encountered before.
n
nOf course, we can’t rely on such ferocious creatures to remind us.
n
nBut there are also some gentle animals, such as owls and bats that float at night or in the evening.”
n
nThe rain did not stop. Bell looked around.
n
nHe sighed and said.
n
n“In this rainy season in the Amazon rainforest, rain can often cause flash floods in just a few days.
n
nTherefore, for safety’s sake, we have to sleep higher today.
n
nDo you remember the rattans I gathered earlier? They can help us build a shelter on high ground.”
n
nThe rattans he had gathered were dozens of meters long.
n
nBell decided to find a tree with dense branches and use these rattans to build a hammock.
n
nIn the tropical rainforest, there was no lack of strange trees.
n
nSoon, Bell found his ideal shelter.
n
nIt was a tall tree with a diameter of three meters.
n
nIf it were in the outside world, it would definitely be worshiped.
n
nUnfortunately, this was the Amazon rainforest.
n
nIt could only be counted as an ordinary tree here.
n
nBecause the trunk of this tree was three meters thick, Bell was not worried that it would be washed away by the flood.
n
nMost importantly, not only were there many vines on the tree trunk, but there were also some uneven bumps that were suitable for climbing.
n
nFollowing the vines, Bell easily climbed seven meters up the tree.
n
nHe stood on a thick branch and took off the rattan.
n
n“These two branches are very firm, and they are less than a meter apart. As long as we tie them with these rattans, we can make a strong hammock.”
n
nBell moved quickly and finished building his shelter in less than ten minutes.
n
nLying on the shelter, Bell even made some large movements to test the toughness of the rattans.
n
nFortunately, the rattan did not break.
n
n“Looks like we don’t have to worry. I think this hammock can withstand the weight of at least five people.”
n
nThe audience in the live-stream couldn’t help but worry for Bell.
n
nAfter all, the rattan looked to be only the thickness of a thumb. If Bell really fell from this height of seven meters, he would break a few bones at least.
n
nAfter all, this was a plant, and no one particularly approved of it.
n
nIt could not be said that they were timid. The main reason was that this rattan looked fragile, as if it would break with a light pull.
n
nIt was indeed a little difficult to make them believe that these thin rattans could withstand a lot of weight.
n
nNot everyone had a strong heart and knowledge like Bell.
n
nThe hammock was built, and there were still some rattans in Bell’s hand.
n
nHe did not waste it. He tied the leaves together tightly and used them as an overhead cover.
n
n“Alright, our shelter is completed.
n
nI’m feeling a little hungry. It’s time to find some food.
n
nAlthough a normal person can survive for seven days without food, if they do not have food to eat, it will cause them to be weak.
n
nThe decrease in physique can also cause organ failure.
n
nAt that time, not to mention survival, you might not even be able to maintain their basic rationality.
n
nMoreover, hunger truly doesn’t feel good. ”
n
nWith that, Bell walked along the vines to the ground. While the sky was not completely dark, he began to search for food in the rainforest.
n
nThere were many species of animals and plants in the Amazon rainforest, but half of them were inedible.
n
nBecause a large number of animals and plants were toxic.
n
nAfter walking around, Bell finally arrived beside a few palm trees.
n
nThere were three palm trees here, and the tallest one was less than three meters tall.
n
nTaking out the dagger at his waist again, Bell began to cut.
n
nBell said as he worked.
n
n“This kind of palm tree is called Palmetto. Their hearts are edible.
n
nI tried this thing in Manaus City.
n
nThis thing tasted good, but it was very expensive.
n
nThe locals like to call them the king of vegetables. ”
n
nIt was not difficult to cut down the palm trees. They were similar to banana trees, and most of the trunks were filled with fibers.
